I'm a fan of the Chicago sports teams, especially the Chicago Bears as well as the UIUC football and basketball teams.
I am an avid game player, puzzle solver, and Pub Trivia teammate.
I try not to be too political, but if I see something where the facts are wrong, I have a difficult time not pointing it out.
I think that December needs an extra two weeks where everyone gets to just catch up on all the books they meant to read.
Actually, the tax returns of all Supreme Court justices should absolutely be made public. That should be a requirement to be one of the nine people with lifetime appointments who make final legal decisions for the rest of the country.
I was telling a guy about the time I went crab fishing in Alaska and caught 600 pounds of crab in one day. And the guy asks if that’s the “net weight”. “No,” I says, “That’s the crab weight, dummy. The net barely weighs anything.”

"Man folks don't realize how cold Walter Payton was at Jackson State. One of the greatest backs in college football history."

Might as well talk about the most motivated troll I came across on the Fediverse.

First bad interaction, I blocked him.

He came back on another instance.

I blocked that.

Then he said, "I can keep doing this, I have hundreds of accounts."

"Fine," I replied—so I looked up every variation of his username on all instances I could find and blocked them. There were indeed hundreds.

He came back, and seriously requested, "Can you stop doing that? It's costing me a fortune in server costs!"

This is my #Introduction post.
The #ChicagoBears are my escape from everything else. I grew up watching Walter Payton with my Dad, and I never miss a Bears game.
I'm also a fan of the #Illini.
I also love #Trivia , #Chess, #Math, #Games, and #Puzzles.
And, yes, in #Chicago we order party cut thin crust pizza for delivery, but when we go out for an event there is nothing better than #ChicagoStylePizza, whether it's #Giordanos, #LouMalnatis, #GinosEast, it's all better than NY style pizza.

I think it’s time for Sports Mastodon to happen.

In Vegas for the #Illini and I swear like 5% of everyone I’ve seen here is reppin Illinois
